How frustrated we feel, living with an alcohol abuser. After a while we have tried everything to get them to stop - hiding or dumping alcohol, pleading with them, venting anger at them, but nothing changes.
Frustration soon turns to anger. Sometimes we feel righteous indignation.
None of this helps the drinker. In fact, picking up our emotions directed against him or her only makes them feel bad. The solution? Have another drink and blot it out for a while.
So we continue to suffer, we too heading around into a downward spiral of angry depression.
We need a new approach - this is what I had to find out the hard way.
How I did this is discussed over in the 'Help Pages' to the right.
If you have any comments about how useful you may have found these notes, please let me know.

I want you to know there is a way forward which many of us have found.
